Edge Computing Topology Information Exposure

2. The EC entity according to claim 1, wherein the method further comprises exposing, as the topology information, a topology of all EDCs in the EC system to the 3GPP system.

4. The EC entity according to claim 1, wherein the method further comprises determining the weight or the priority of an EDC of the plurality of EDCs based on a capacity or a load of the EDC in the EC system compared to other EDCs in the EC system.

5. The EC entity according to claim 1, wherein the method further comprises determining the weight of an EDC of the plurality of EDCs dynamically or with a determined spatial or temporal validity.

6. The EC entity according to claim 1, wherein the method further comprises exposing, as the topology information, a determined selection algorithm for selecting a plurality of EDCs to the 3GPP system.

7. The EC entity according to claim 6, wherein the determined selection algorithm includes a round robin algorithm, user equipment proximity based algorithm, or an algorithm based on service differentiation.

11. The MCC entity according to claim 10, wherein the MCC entity is a MCC system management entity or is an application function (AF) of the MCC system.

13. The MCC entity according to claim 10, wherein the method further comprising providing the topology information together with one or more data network access identifiers (DNAIs) to the PCF via a network data analytics function (NWDAF).
